Heavy and Leaving - Corb Lund Band
The Modern Pain version is Capo 3 and the Five Dollar Bill version is Capo 5
The days are piling up and I don t know that I can take it
And freedom by design is so far gone I ll never make
And everything s so heavy that I think I want to leave it
And it s weight that I don t need I think it s time that I relieved it
CHORUS:
Heavy and I m leavin , heavy and I m gone
It s heavy and I m leavin here, so long
Heavy and I m leavin , heavy and I m gone
It s heavy and I m leavin here, so long
Well outside ain t so good today it s windy and it s raining
And it s been so bad so long that I can t say I see it changing
The talk that I ve been subject to seems mostly unrelated
And these blues have been allowed to run/continue unabated
CHORUS
Heavy and I m leavin , heavy and I m gone
It s heavy and I m leavin here, so long
Heavy and I m leavin , heavy and I m gone
It s heavy and I m leavin here, so long
Discouraged fingers with no follow through
No courage lingers like you want it to
Discouraged fingers with no follow through
Discouraged fingers with no love for you
Well these hands have always been too slow in the past
Reluctance greeted nearly every task
Now my old heart tells me he wants it done fast
Discouraged fingers they resist to the last
CHORUS
